I think these would be great since they not only provide UI unity (no matter what browser the user is using) and they look to be more reliable than alert() and confirm() in terms of cross-platform consistency.

Is there a fallback for screenreaders which can actually handle javascript alerts?

And this breaks my normal experience with any web application and alert()s. I think the proper buttons should be selected by default if we're going to try to do this at the very least, as well as a tab order that matches the default tab order of browsers.

I'm sure it could be done. But then again, I wonder if any screen readers actually can use the whole admin and all functionality... Just saying.

Is this really needed? Such windows are used by TinyMCE for input, And thickbox iframes are used elsewhere for larger content, A quick alert/confirm box for confirming deletions pops up quicker than any JS/CSS implementation will do.. And since theres been no traction in the last 2 years, It seems a wontfix to me.

Someone feel free to open this in the future if you believe its worth implementing, or actually has a major usage..
